About its current yield as of August 2026. A higher yield is not automatically better: it can reflect a falling share price as easily as a generous payout, so it is worth checking why the number is what it is.

Cosan pays once a year. The most recent payment on record had an ex-dividend date of June 10, 2024. To receive a given payment you have to own the shares before the ex-dividend date, not on the pay date. Confirm upcoming dates on CSAN's investor relations page, because boards can change both the amount and the timing.

The ex-dividend date recorded in our August 2026 data pull is June 10, 2024. The ex-dividend date is the cutoff: buy on or after it and the seller keeps that payment, not you. Buying just before the ex-date to capture the dividend does not create free money, because the share price typically drops by roughly the dividend amount when the stock goes ex. Check CSAN's investor relations page for the next confirmed date.

$0.35 per share in the most recent payment (ex-date June 10, 2024). The equivalent payment a year earlier was $0.34. That is a change of 0.6% year over year.

Yes. The latest payment of $0.35 per share is above the $0.34 paid in the same slot a year earlier, an increase of about 0.6%. One raise is not a policy, though: check the multi-year record on CSAN's investor relations page, since a long streak of increases is what dividend-growth investors actually look for.

We do not have a payout ratio on record for CSAN. The payout ratio, the share of earnings paid out as dividends, is the usual first check on whether a dividend has room to keep growing; you can find it on CSAN's investor relations page or in your broker's fundamentals tab. Nobody can guarantee a dividend: boards cut them, and a high yield is sometimes the market pricing in exactly that. Walnut is not an investment adviser and this is not a recommendation.

Dividends from US common stock are usually qualified, meaning they are taxed at the lower long-term capital-gains rates, provided you held the shares for more than 60 days in the 121-day window around the ex-dividend date. Distributions from REITs, BDCs, and some pass-through structures are generally taxed as ordinary income instead. In an IRA or Roth the question does not arise. See our guide to how dividends are taxed. This is not tax advice.

Most brokers offer automatic reinvestment (a DRIP) that puts each CSAN payment straight back into more shares, often fractional ones. Reinvesting compounds the position and is the standard choice when you do not need the cash yet. Taking the cash makes sense when you are spending the income or want to direct it elsewhere. Either way the dividend is taxable in a taxable account in the year it is paid, even if you never see the money.

Distributions are not the priority while the holding company is reducing debt, and the trailing loss leaves no earnings to pay out of. Management has instead discussed eventually distributing subsidiary shares directly to shareholders as leverage falls, which would be a structural change rather than a recurring cash dividend.

Any distribution from a Brazilian issuer can be subject to Brazilian withholding depending on how it is characterized, and ADR depositaries typically deduct a custody fee before crediting holders. US investors normally report the gross amount and may be able to claim a foreign tax credit. A tax professional is the right check for a specific situation.
